I get why the timer doesn't speed up based on the # of people in a complex, as this would make it so a blob of people could instantly take systems, which would suck, but honestly it gets really annoying when you have 2 guys there that don't mind splitting LP and just want to be a bit safer and cover each other yet the timer still has 0 effect....

What i would like to recommend is a sort of incursion style scaling... but not in ISK or LP but in time break down....

Minors 1 person 10 minutes, Minors 2 People 7 Minutes, Minors 3 people 5 minutes, Minors 3+ people 5 minutes still ....

you get what i'm saying, so that there is an impact of having a friend, but their is not an impact if theres a blob... this would promote small gang warfare and coordination, but not blob warfare.
